[sockpuppetmartinez]

I'm an atheist, but this song still tends to make me a little misty-eyed.

Have you tried listening to this version and the osso arrangement version side by side... beautiful.

This song is strange. I can't really put it into words. I was lying in my sofa with the lights out listening to a mix with soothing ambient music, and then this came on. I was immediately thrown off balance. Listening to it, I heard anger, sadness, hopelessness and yet there was a hint of hope. I'm strangely drawn to this.
